Guillermo del Toro Reveals ‘Cruel’ & ‘Violent’ New Movie With Frankenstein’s Oscar Isaac

Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro has announced his next movie with Frankenstein collaborator Oscar Isaac while speaking to the attendees at the Toronto International Film Festival. Del Toro also discussed his stop-motion adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel The Buried Giant.

Guillermo del Toro says his next project with Oscar Isaac will be a thriller titled Fury

Guillermo del Toro had Oscar Isaac right beside him when he announced his next collaborative venture with the Moon Knight actor, a “very cruel, very violent” thriller titled Fury in front of the TIFF audience.

“I’m writing a project to do with Oscar,” the writer-director said. “I’m writing it right now, and it’s called Fury, and essentially it’s going back to sort of thriller aspects of Nightmare Alley — very cruel, very violent. Like My Dinner with Andre but killing people after each course.”

The announcement came after Frankenstein, which features Isaac as the titular brilliant but egotistical scientist, was screened at TIFF as part of the Special Presentations programme. The movie also stars Jacob Elordi as the Creature, Mia Goth as Elizabeth Lavenza, and Christoph Waltz as Henrich Harlander.

Del Toro then proceeded to explain why he found the concept of Fury fascinating. “Because I’m very interested in the violence we do to each other, and we do it with our minds, we do it with our souls and we do it physically,” he explained, before stating that regret will be a major motif in the project.

Del Toro spoke about the “new questions” that he has as a man of age 60. “I’ve gone from asking who I am as a father and son to regret. I’m in the regret decade, so expect a lot of regret” (The Hollywood Reporter).

While speaking about his stop-motion iteration of The Buried Giant, del Toro noted that it “is not going to be for kids.” Deadline originally reported on the animated project in early 2023.
